The first nine cities to launch, in spring 2019, include San Francisco, Boston, Chicago, Montreal, Barcelona, Lisbon, Madrid, Paris and Rome.

LuggageHero says it will also begin to offer third-party integration with hospitality companies, allowing vacation rental companies, for example, to integrate storage reservation options into their own platforms. The integration will eventually be offered to online travel agency and other booking-related sites.

Since launching in 2016, LuggageHero has stored more than 125,000 pieces of luggage for more than 650,000 hours and has had double-digit monthly revenue growth.

Over two funding rounds, the company - led by founder and CEO Jannik Lawaetz - has raised more than $2.25 million.

“LuggageHero has rapidly developed a leadership position in the competitive market for self-service luggage storage,” says Peter Warnoe, CEO of Nordic Eye.

“We’ve been very impressed with their growth so far, and LuggageHero is exactly the kind of founder-led, nimble business that we like to invest in.”
